Hi, Guys, I am From India. I want to Build a PC That Can handle 1080p Games at High,
Very High Or Ultra(60fps). and I also do stuff like youtube video making.
I pick up my Build can anyone tell that is it ok for my work??
my Configuration is -

MotherBord = Gigabyte GA-H110M-S2 Socket LGA 1151 Motherboard (Rs.4,340)
Processor = Intel Core i5-6600K (3.5 GHz) Socket 1151 Quad Core Processor (Rs.18,900)
Ram = Corsair 8GB (1 x 8 GB) DDR4 Vengeance LPX 2400Mhz C16 Red Kit for X99 Chipset (Rs.4,549)
GPU = ASUS Dual-Fan Radeon Rx 480 4GB OC Edition with DP 1.4 HDMI 2.0 DUAL-RX480-O4G DUAL 4GB (Rs.17,028)
Or Should i take GTX 1060 3GB(Which Is Better)
HHD = Seagate Barracuda 2TB SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache 3.5" Internal Bare Drive (ST2000DM006) (Rs.5,800)

!) Converter = DVI-I Male 24+1pin to 15 pin VGA Female Adapter for Dual Monitor Display (Rs.135)(Because my Current Monitor Only support VGA)
OR
Monitor = Dell 21.5 inch Full HD IPS LED - S2216H Monitor (Black) (Rs.8,999)
Also, i have a Corsair VS550 (550w) PSU is it Sufficient For my new configuration

Great build. I'd strongly change your video card to the asus rog strix 1060. If you can afford a little more get the 1070. It will be over kill for now, but you'll be future proof for a while.
Expecially if you plan on a 2k 144htz monitor in the future.

Rx 480 is actually better with its updated drivers now, plus it's WAY cheaper. You can get an RX 480 8G for the same price as a GTX 1060 3G. Also are you planning on overclocking? Because your motherboard won't allow overclocking. Get a Z series motherboard if your going to overclock. Also, you will need a CPU cooler because the K series CPUs don't come with stock coolers. If your not overclocking just get an i5-6600.

A 1070 isn't only a "little more". It's a lot more. There's no such thing as future proofing. An RX 480 with its DX12 optimization will most likely last for up to another 4 years at 1080p, high settings, 60+ fps. It's a much better option than the GTX 1060.

I wouldn't consider under 200$ a lot of money. But I'm also an adult with a good job.
Amd isn't what they used to be. So many games run terribly on their cards and the driver updates are few and far between. It doesn't take much of a google search to realize that.
Further more Nvidia has a lot more graphic options and there is a reason why they have over 70 percent of the market. Maybe the 500 series will change that. Ryzen cpus seems very promising, but for gpu's you can't beat nvidia.
Fact is fact and anything else is fanboy nonsense.

Frankly speaking, i am not much into 2k or 4k. I just want my game run at max out in 720p or best 1080p. will it be ok with my current choice ?? and also thanks for the advice ,and also 1070 is out of my budget price.

Do i really need the extra 4GB VRAM For games? and also is overclocking is good for the CPU? is it have any Big advantage in Games? if I change my mobo for overclocking I can use it without overclocking right?if I want to. also the link of the Mobo u suggest.
Thanks for Helping :)

Alot of games are needing more vram these days. I kinda had to upgrade from a 980 because of it. Unless you are using high cpu games (which are not very many) I wouldnt worry about overclocking it if you can't afford it.
I'd strongly suggest the nvidia 1060 6gb. Read the benchmarks it beats the 480 in pretty much every game. Not to mention better temps, graphic options, overclocking, efficiency, DSR.
Also AMD is about to release there Ryzen cpus at the start of march. They are absolute beast for a very low cost. I would get an ASUS dual 1060 6gb with and AMD Ryzen 1600x (google the benchmarks, it rivals the i7 6800k!!!) The motherboard you might have to research a little bit because they are just coming out.
But once again get the 1060 over the 480.

Yes, even if you get a motherboard, you do not have to overclock. Overclocking is just a way to get the most performance out of your hardware. There definitely is an improvement when overclocking, but it's not huge. Also, you can easily get by with an RX 480 4G, but the extra 4G of VRAM is always a good idea, and I would definitely recommend the RX 480 over the GTX 1060. Until the GTX 1060 drops in price, they are just not worth buying at the moment when the RX 480s are only getting cheaper, especially when they perform just as well if not better, IMO. Personally, this is the motherboard I suggest: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813132691&cm_re=Asus_z170_e-_-13-132-691-_-Product

This Z170 board has a lot of great features but is still budget friendly. IMO, this is one of the best value Z170 motherboards, especially at its price.

Im pretty sure they will be out march 3rd. They are supposed to announce everything this week. I myself have 2 1070 with the i5 4690k. I plan on upgrading to either the 1600x or 1700.
Don't be confused seems like a lot to take in. I suggest Asus dual 1060 6gb, AMD ryzen 1600x, Asus motherboard (to go with ryzen cpu.) 500 w evga power supply, decent ddr4 ram and an ssd. The motherboard you'll have to do a little bit of researching.
With those parts you'll max any game out for awhile. Plus with nvidia, the dsr works really well. You can simulate 2k and 4k on a 1080p monitor.

Im not sure, but i'd imagine they will be there shortly. It's worth the wait.
If AMD pulls it off, you'll be able to spend $300 and get the power of a $1000+ cpu from Intel.

Your "$300 to $1000" claim is all just speculation and guessing. Although we may know the performances of some of the chips, we don't know for sure what the prices will look like. An AMD $300 comparing to Intel $1000 seems very unlikely. AMD might have just as good performance if not better and lower prices, but that's a pretty large claim.

Maybe you should learn how to use google a little bit before suggesting I'm wrong.
The prices, benchmarks and specs have all been leaked for like 2 weeks now. And like I said "IF AMD PULLS IT OFF". The benchmarks are looking very promising.

Can you post a link to all of the RYZEN prices and specs? I cant seem to find them.

I Think I should wait for the 3rd march for the original release. if it is promising what it said then I would go with it.:wahoo:

If you don't plan on overclocking just buy yourself an i5 6500 with a good monitor
